Influencing design The thinking behind our indicators INFLUENCING DESIGN Influencing design is about ‘walking the talk’ and introducing a sustainability culture into our own projects so we can, in turn, influence broader development outcomes. The tools we use to achieve this are the Landcom Guidelines, which provide direction on how to achieve high quality and sustainable home and neighbourhood designs. Our aim is for all our projects to take the Landcom Guidelines into account during the planning and design phase. Furthermore, all lots that have sustainable design criteria should have two of the following: Indicator descriptor Influencing design Indicator Number of projects where Landcom influences the builders’ product by specifying design criteria Percentage of lots delivered where the builders’ designs were influenced by Landcom through design guidelines Target 2009/2010 to 2014/2015 No target Result 2010/2011 10 of 10 projects Result 2009/2010 9 of 9 projects Target 2002/2003 to 2008/2009 No target 2008/2009 2007/2008 2006/2007 6 out of 6 projects 8 out of 8 projects 3 out of 4 projects No target 100% 100% No target 100% 94% 98% •• solar orientation and passive solar design •• energy efficient design (6 star thermal performance) Percentage (and number) of projects where the Landcom Guidelines were used to influence urban outcomes 100% 60% (6 of 10 projects) 56% (5 of 9 projects) No data – indicator introduced in 2009/2010 •• water conservation measures (4 star rated taps, shower roses, fittings and fixtures, toilets) •• household recycling facilities. How we performed While 60% or six out of 10 projects used the Landcom Guidelines, Garden Gates, Spring Farm, The Ponds Stage 3 and Vantage are all projects that pre-date the guidelines, giving rise to the recorded result. With regard to sustainable design criteria in solar, energy, water and recycling, 100% or 1,048 lots included two or more of these criteria in their design guidelines. This is an improvement over last year’s figure of 93%. Percentage of lots delivered that had sustainable design criteria in design guidelines, comprising two out of four of the following sustainability criteria: (a) solar orientation and passive solar design (b) energy efficient design (i.e. 6 star thermal performance) (c) water conservation measures (i.e. 4 star rated fittings and fixtures) (d) household recycling facilities 100% 100% 93% No data – indicator introduced in 2009/2010. Previously, the indicator was defined as Percentage of lots delivered that had sustainable design criteria in design guidelines, comprising two out of four of the following sustainability criteria: –– solar orientation and passive solar design –– energy efficient design (i.e. 4.5 star NatHERS (Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme) –– water conservation measures (i.e. AAA-rated shower roses, 3/6-litre flush toilets) –– waste minimisation and ongoing recycling facilities. This was then superseded by BASIX, so data collection was no longer required. For projects where we only sell land, we can normally only influence the built form by encouraging the use of the Landcom Guidelines. This year, 100% of projects have design guidelines – or 10 out of 10 of the projects delivering land only. This is equivalent to 1,048 lots being influenced by Landcom’s preferred design outcomes. Percentage of Landcom projects applying the Landcom Guidelines 100% 90% 80% Percentage of Landcom projects applying the Landcom Guidelines 100% 90% 80% It is pleasing to see that the steps we took last year to improve results, including introducing a refresher course on sustainability within the organisation and enhancing existing communication and information systems to improve knowledge about sustainability requirements, appear to have paid off. 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2009/2010 2010/2011 2011/2012 2012/2013 2013/2014 2014/2015 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 2009/2010 2010/2011 Result 2015 Target Result Target 44 landcom annual report 2011
Demonstration projects casestudy The thinking behind our indicators We develop and road test environmental sustainability innovations in our ‘demonstration’ projects and then roll these out in other projects and more broadly through our project partnership arrangements with the private sector. The results for demonstration projects that featured environmental sustainability innovations during the reporting period are provided in the table below. Further information on our demonstration initiatives at The Ponds and Bunya is provided as Case Studies elsewhere in this report (see table below for location). How we performed DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS - ENVIRONMENTAL Indicator descriptor Demonstration projects Indicator Description of environmental leadership and innovation across the organisation (including development, policy, and corporate initiatives) Target 2009/2010 to 2014/2015 No target Result 2010/2011 The Ponds, Bunya Result 2009/2010 Refer to Demonstration projects section Target 2002/2003 to 2008/2009 2008/2009 2007/2008 2006/2007 No data – indicator introduced in 2009/2010 Our efforts at The Ponds hit the mark with the local community We recently surveyed our new residents in The Ponds, the fastest growing neighbourhood in the state, to see how satisfied they were with their new home and to ask what they thought of the community development and Welcome Program initiatives we provide. Well over 200 households responded. The results were overwhelmingly positive. As many as 98% of respondents agreed that overall, The Ponds was a good place to live and over half had participated recently in an event or activity organised by the local community development facilitator. Residents reported a high level of satisfaction with a wide range of features provided in and around their homes. There was also a strong awareness of our design guidelines and a high level of satisfaction with the benefits that these provide. Perhaps most pleasing of all, almost 95% of those who responded would recommend The Ponds to their friends and relatives as a place to live.
